Water sports and leisure activities Paris 15th 75015

The solarium of this pool is quite limited, being confined to the area around the pools. But we particularly appreciate the vast sliding roof, which bathes the space in light, turning it into an open-air pool in fine weather. No greenery here, but don't worry! Surrounded by the towers of the ^15th arrondissement, against a backdrop of blue skies, the setting is original. The youthful, friendly atmosphere also attracts sports enthusiasts. The large pool is Olympic-sized: 50 metres long, by 15 metres. A second 15-meter pool is available for younger children.

We never imagined we would be able to surf one day in the heart of the 15th arrondissement, but it is possible: Wave in Paris is an artificial wave 16 meters long and 10 meters wide, in a 1,000 m² center. On an inclined plane, the wave thus created allows children as well as adults to realize bodyboard and flowboard figures. Guaranteed sensations and additional activities, such as the adjoining squash rooms: nothing is missing here. The craze is already there, so think about booking before coming here!

Swimming with a view of the Eiffel Tower is possible in this beautiful pool with its large picture windows. Its two pools, measuring 25 m x 12.50 m and 12.50 m x 6 m, have a capacity limited to around 30 people, so you can swim without jostling each other. The water lines also channel swimmers, who benefit from a certain order. Note that this pool is part of a sports center that also includes a stadium, several gyms and a sports field. A very nice place.

From the Montparnasse Tower shopping center, it's possible to see the pool through the windows - it's located in the basement. Swimmers have three pools at their disposal: a large one measuring 33 m x 15 m (maximum depth 2 m), a medium-sized one measuring 25 m x 12.50 m (maximum depth 3.40 m) and a small one measuring 12.50 m x 6 m (maximum depth 1.20 m), where aquagym sessions take place. Prices are still very affordable, and the complex is open every day from Monday to Saturday: times vary according to school schedules.

Built on several floors in balconies in the 1930 s, the Blomet swimming pool is organised according to a common plan in Paris… and charming. If the rooms have been moved into a more convenient area, the cabins on the floors are reserved for visitors, with a superb view over the 50 x 12 m pool. This pool attracts the best swimmers. According to custom, swimmers are divided into the water lines according to their level, to prevent the aisles and the different swimmers from creating a traffic jam! It is possible to take swimming courses for beginners who will become, who knows, great champions. Many clubs get involved, attracted by the measurements of this basin, rare in Paris. However, this swimming pool is the victim of its success and has a very sustained attendance whatever day and time!
